TikTok and CHINA!

We’ve got a great new Caglecast/podcast about TikTok and China where you can meet our cartoonists Patrick Chappatte, Jimmy Margulies and Dave Whamond. We also have our syndicated columnist, Jase Graves, who tells me that looks like a portrait of his daughter in the Chappatte cartoon below.

I hope you’ll watch our video on YouTube below and subscribe at YouTube.com/@caglecast! It really helps us if you subscribe, and we’ve been kind of disappointed at how few of our fans have been watching or subscribing to the podcast. One of my goals with the podcast is to get readers and especially editors to get to know the cartoonists as real people. Editors tend to treat editorial cartoons as if they are fungible, just commodities, rather than getting to know the people behind the cartoons, and learning more about the culture of our profession.

Here are some great cartoons from the 40 cartoons discussed in our podcast!

I know our readers like to look at the cartoons, and watching (or listening to) a podcast is a different experience, but I hope you’ll give it a try! We’d like for you to get to know the cartoonists and where they are coming from!

TIKTOK TANGO: Top Ten Cartoons of the Week

TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew faced blistering questions this week, as legislators try to decide whether to ban the Chinese-owned social media platform within the U.S.

The irony, of course, is politicians are trying to protect children from a website while not lifting a finger following the latest mass shooting at a school, this time The Covenant School in Nashville, Tenn.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. John Darkow

 

#2. Dave Whamond

 

#3. Monte Wolverton

 

#4. Dave Granlund

 

#5. Rivers

 

#6. R.J. Matson

 

#7. Rick McKee

 

#8. R.J. Matson

Top Ten Cartoons of the Week – September 25th, 2021

Here are our most reprinted cartoons of the week ending  September 18th, 2021. Congratulations to John Darkow who drew the most popular cartoon of the week! John’s cartoon was reprinted in about 92 newspapers. our conservative, veteran cartoonist Dick Wright was the most reprinted cartoonist for the week, overall.

Just about half of America’s daily, paid circulation newspapers (around 700 papers) subscribe to CagleCartoons.com. These are the cartoons that editors picked last week.

Our reader supported site, Cagle.com, still needs you!  Journalism is threatened with the pandemic that has shuttered newspaper advertisers. Some pundits predict that a large percentage of newspapers won’t survive the pandemic economic slump, and as newspapers sink, editorial cartoonists who depend on newspapers sink too, and along with them, our Cagle.com site.

The world needs political cartoonists more now than ever. Please consider supporting Cagle.com and visit Cagle.com/heroes.
